Vanta makes compliance possible for small teams
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta provides a low friction path to SOC2 certification, enabling our small team to go from zero to starting our observation period in under 30 days. Our Customer Success team was always available to answer questions, offer advice, and keep us moving forward. I can't imagine going through compliance preparation and the audit without Vanta.
What do you dislike about the product?
Limited integration with lesser known service providers, however, Vanta continues to improve their coverage and is responsive to feature requests.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our business never had a good answer to how we addressed compliance. Vanta has given us the tools, guidance, and partnerships to build a comprehensive compliance regime in record time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Vanta immediately impressed us with their product and their commitment to client success. Their deep network of contacts has allowed us to find the best match for our needs on penetration testing and audit partner selection.

Excellent product & great staff
What do you like best about the product?
Cost savings and speed of execution of the SOC 2 accreditation process. Vanta is also very responsive to feedback and their staff are well trained in the product too.
What do you dislike about the product?
Reporting is fixed and 'clunky'. Better access to data via an API would be good
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SOC 2 Type 2 certification for Tessian.com
SOC2 Compliance user
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to navigate, very clear what is passing and what isn't.
What do you dislike about the product?
wish it mapped to SOC2 controls better/more clear
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping everyone on track. Everyone knows what they are responsible for. Hub for security related tasks.
We would have been LOST without Vanta!
What do you like best about the product?
Do I have to pick just one thing?! In short, Vanta was able to simplify what is otherwise an extremely difficult project (especially for a company our size, about 75 people). Their employees are passionate and great to work with, from the very first call to handing off to a Customer Success Manager (CSM).
To explain in more detail, when we started the SOC II Type I Audit process we had no idea where to begin, and had previously spent 6-8 months attempting to complete things on our own, barely making any progress. As soon as we found Vanta, we immediately felt relief and confidence that we could complete the work required to pass our audit. The platform is easy to use, user-friendly, gives great insight into our high-priority risks, computers that need additional features, has a great email notification system for sending employees invites and reminders, and has very well thought out policies that allowed us to complete the work within a couple of months rather what I’m sure would have taken us more than a year. Our CSM met with us weekly to help us figure out where to start first, what to focus on each week, etc. and there is no way we could have completed this audit without them!

What do you dislike about the product?
I can't think of a single critique, Vanta is worth every penny!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta helps point out where our biggest security risks are, and points us in the direction to solve them, even down to the employee and device level. Vanta also helps us write and improve our security policies to continue improving our security posture. Because of Vanta, we were able to complete our SOC II Type I Audit in only a couple of months.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a platform that is easy to use, user-friendly, gives great insight into your high-priority risks, computers that need additional features, a great email notification system for sending employees invites and reminders, very well thought out policies, and to essentially take something as complex as a SOC II audit and simplify the work so it can be completed within a couple of months, all while working with an awesome CSM who helps as much as needed the entire way, Vanta is for you. I do not think we could have completed our audit without them!
Made the SOC2 process painless and easy
What do you like best about the product?
The entire process from creating and reviewing the policies, monitoring our cloud environment, code repository& addiotnal systems, together with collecting the evidence automatically was a huge offload. Bundled with great support before we started the process by Ashley and after we started it with Taylor was a great help.
What do you dislike about the product?
We experienced some minor issues with some cloud monitoring metrics, but they have all been addressed within days.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were able to get ready to the SOC2 audit within 6 weeks with significant less effort while still focusing on the business and customers, otherwise it could have been a full time work for a few months.
Best way to automate a lot of the SOC-2 work
What do you like best about the product?
First, you have a dashboard for most of your SOC-2 requirements.
Integrates well with GCP, GSuite, Slack, GitHub - essentially covering almost all requirements.
Good policy templates.
Audit prices drop too because of the automation.

What do you dislike about the product?
The only rough edges we noticed were around supporting many different GCP projects, but support is very helpful in working on fixing this.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Very quick ramp up to getting ready for SOC-2 Type 2.
Vanta made security a breeze!
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta had a very tech forward platform and their continuous monitoring made going with them a simple decision. As Assembly is now Soc2, Vanta is a key part in our security journey. Their team was also amazingly kind, prompt and helpful every step of the way!
What do you dislike about the product?
I'll let you know when I find something I don't like.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are an HR platform and every time we went out for new business, we'd be asked if we were Soc2 compliant. Not having compliance was a show stopper. Working with Vanta was fast, efficient and now we're winning business left and right thanks to Vanta.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Vanta is a no brainer. They are the best in the game. Why else would they be growing so fast!
